<p>Actor <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/boycott-john-leguizamo-insta-rants-after-james-franco-lands-role-of-fidel-castro/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">John Leguizamo</a> joined the two Latina co-hosts of ABC&#8217;s &#8220;The View&#8221; — <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/sunny-isnt-your-birth-name-nikki-haley-fires-back-at-the-view-for-calling-her-an-ethnic-chameleon/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sunny Hostin</a> and <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/sunny-hostin-turns-on-ana-navarro-why-are-you-as-a-latina-still-part-of-the-republican-party/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ana Navarro</a> — to discuss why they believed Republicans were doing so well at earning the Hispanic vote in recent elections.</p>
<p>Leguizamo, whose <a href="https://www.pbs.org/weta/finding-your-roots/about/meet-our-guests/john-leguizamo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">family is Colombian</a>, joined Wednesday&#8217;s broadcast of the midday talk show, where he joined Hostin and Navarro in lamenting that <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/gop-grows-support-among-black-hispanic-youth-voting-blocs-exit-polls-find/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Latino voters</a> just weren&#8217;t &#8220;savvy&#8221; when it came to navigating political propaganda and messaging.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Racist Sunny Hostin claims Latinos voting GOP are being tricked with &quot;fear tactics,&quot; whines about the right warning about communism. &quot;I’m surprised that we fall for it.&quot;<br />John Leguizamo agrees and says Latinos are falling for &quot;trigger words&quot; because they&#39;re &quot;not as media savvy.&quot; <a href="https://t.co/4795PLrDTG">pic.twitter.com/4795PLrDTG</a></p>
<p>&mdash; Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) <a href="https://twitter.com/NickFondacaro/status/1593008833839845376?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 16, 2022</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Leguizamo began by weighing in on the state of politics in general — namely, the fact that former President Donald Trump had officially announced his third presidential run the night before — and he predicted an exciting battle between Trump and Republican Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.</p>
<p>&#8220;It’s kind of exciting and terrible all at once because if he’s the nominee for the Republicans, it’s going to undo them because he loses suburban women, he loses the moderates, the moderate Republicans, independents, but then the fight between him and DeSantis could be UFC!&#8221; he said, adding, &#8220;Oh my God, that would be a blast. But then if he wins, he’s going to know how to destroy America. He’ll destroy the country.&#8221;</p>
<p>Navarro then asked whether he could break down the Latino vote for the viewers, noting that a large number had moved to the Right in recent elections.</p>
<p>&#8220;I always feel like people misunderstand the Latino vote,&#8221; she said. &#8220;So can you give us Latino Vote for Morons 101?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Well, you know, we’re the largest – one of the largest voting blocs. We’re also the largest minority in the United States. We’re the oldest ethnic group in America. And we vote. But you have to come for us. You have to talk about our issues. You have to knock on our doors. You can’t take us for granted and expect us to be there for you,&#8221; Leguizamo replied.</p>
<p>The actor noted that Republicans had reached out, saying that was why so many Latinos had responded by moving toward the political right.</p>
<p>&#8220;The Republicans understand better and they&#8217;re coming for us. They’re putting ads in our Spanish radio station, on WhatsApp,&#8221; he said. &#8220;They come for us and that’s why Latinos are shifting toward them. But just come for us, Democrats.&#8221;</p>
<p>Navarro argued that the rightward shift had not happened in places like Nevada and Arizona, at which point Hostin jumped in to claim that Republicans were &#8220;tricking&#8221; Latinos into voting for them by scaring them with words like &#8220;socialism.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;They&#8217;re not really addressing the issues that Latinos face,&#8221; Hostin protested, adding, &#8220;I&#8217;m surprised that we fall for it.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Yeah, because we&#8217;re not — we&#8217;re not as media savvy maybe as we should be, you know, as a group,&#8221; Leguizamo agreed. &#8220;So trigger words do get us, but they get white people too.&#8221;</p>
<p>He and Hostin then argued that Make America Great Again was code for &#8220;Make America White Again.&#8221;</p>
